After about an hour, the cultivation chamber opened, and 'Butler Liu' ca out. He looked around, assessing the surroundings.
Closing the cultivation chamber, he started moving towards the nearby guard and said, "Gather everyone. I have sothing important to announce."
"Yes, Butler Liu."
Being greeted in such an informal way gave the Crown Prince a weird feeling, 'Well, this sure was weird. I should get used to this feeling.'
Within a few minutes, everyone from the mansion was gathered in the courtyard.
Ye Tian Yun looked around and cleared his throat before saying, "Well, everyone, I have sothing important to announce. The Crown Prince is going through critical close cultivation. No one is to go with ten steps of the cultivation chamber. Trust ; you won't survive his anger if you disturb his cultivation. And I will also be heading out for this ti being. The Crown Prince has given so instructions which I need to follow. I will repeat my words again. Do not go near the cultivation chamber even if the heavens fell.
"Noted, Butler Liu"
"Alright"
"I have never gone near that place ever."
"Yeah, and here I thought there was an important announcent."
"Sa. I was even expecting a pay raise."
"In your dreams. I don't even rember the last ti it happened."
"I want to talk about this to the Crown Prince, but even though the heavens gave cultivation, it didn't give enough guts."
"Yeah, even I don't dare to do that. I understand you, brother Ming."
"Sa"
Ye Tian Yun could only stare at them as they went on talking among each other. He really wanted to remove his disguise and shout at them that he was their god damned crown prince, but he controlled his emotions and said, "Shut up now, I am serious about this. Now go back to your work!"
"Yeah, sure."
"See you around, Butler Liu."
"Have a good day, Butler Liu."
Soon, everyone dispersed and went back to their duties. Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath and started heading towards the main gates.
Ye Tian Yun headed towards the Heavenly Stairs. The only known way to traverse between the Upper, Middle, and Lower heavens. This place wasn't literally any stair, but a mysterious mountain pass.
It was situated just outside the Imperial City. Even the guards there were Saint Level powerhouses.
As the Butler of the Crown Prince, Butler Liu had his own reputation. Even though he was Half Saint, even the Venerable Saints didn't dare to look down on him. As he headed towards the Heavenly Stairs, he was greeted by many cultivators. Ye Tian Yun felt kind of smug as he thought that even his butler is not treated less than a celebrity, 'Butler Liu is fortunate to have as his master.'
Even System felt speechless when it heard his thoughts.
Soon they had reached their destination. The mountain pass was filled with clouds and mist. Butler Liu's black robe fluttered as he burst into the dense fog.
The entrance to the Lower Heavens was located at this place!
Ye Tian Yun rushed into this channel without any hesitation. He had passed through it once before. His body was engulfed in dazzling seven-colored rays of light. It was genuinely fantastical. He arrived at a platform after he had crossed this very long channel.
Ye Tian Yun's expression was gentle as he set foot on the stone platform. The sky over the stone platform was misty. Suddenly, a gorgeous white light ca from this dark and cloudy sky and enveloped Ye Tian Yun's body in its entirety.
The light flashed once. And, Ye Tian Yun's body disappeared.
Ye Tian Yun had kept his eyes closed until now…
He then opened his eyes, and he discovered that he was in midair. But, he was slowly going downwards. There was a vast green-field on the flat land below. There were undulating mountains in the distance. There was diluted Qi in the air. It was obviously far thinner in comparison to the Middle Heavens.
Ye Tian Yun hovered down and gently landed on the ground.
The circular door – that was hanging in midair – closed quietly.
This was the Barren Plain!
Ye Tian Yun's eyes revealed a thoughtful look as electricity rushed throughout his body. The place he wanted to visit the most was Crimson City!
He would have to go west from the Barren Plain. He would then have to circle around and take a long detour to reach the crimson City!
The journey would be a lot shorter if he would go north from here. However, he would have to pass through the Xin-Wu Battlefront! It would be very dangerous. But, he couldn't possibly be afraid of any danger when he knew that there was a war going-on at the Xin-Wu Battlefront, and the sect that he wanted to join, the Gracious Sword Sect, was also situated there.
Ye Tian started flying towards its direction.
-----
After a few days of traveling, he neared the Xin-Wu Battlefront.
Here used to be a lone restaurant here. It stood here alone, but it still provided a resting place for the pedestrians on the journey.
Moreover, it was located at the entrance of the Xin-Wu Battlefront. So, it was always bustling with people. And, those who arrived here weren't ordinary people. The ordinary people were unable to co here. It wasn't like each of the visitors were very wealthy individuals, but that also didn't an that they didn't have family fortunes...
This place only used to have a restaurant in the past.. But, it had slowly turned into an inn. This was eventually followed by a gambling house, a brothel, and so on…
